Segfault error on faiss.IndexIVFFlat().train

[mkandrewhuang301]

Summary

when I run #FAISS
num_vectors, feat_dim = clip_embeds.shape
quantize = faiss.IndexFlatIP(feat_dim)
ivf_index = faiss.IndexIVFFlat(quantize, feat_dim,int(sqrt(num_vectors)),)
ivf_index.train(clip_embeds)
ivf_index.add(clip_embeds)
FAISS_index = {
"video_ids": clip_paths,
"clip_embeds": ivf_index,
}
given video embeddings from clip_embeds, why does my compter crash when it runs the ivf_index.train line

Platform

OS: macOS m1

Faiss version:

Installed from: pip install faiss-cpu

Faiss compilation options:

Running on:
- [ ] CPU

• GPU

Interface:

• C++
  - [ ] Python

Reproduction instructions

pip install faiss-cpu
generate vector embeddings
run code for faiss index building

This should work.
Please install Faiss with conda, pip is known to cause problems especially on macs.
